Book four of the ONLY HUMAN
series…
Kirsten negotiated for what she
hopes will be two glorious hours with Xaephan, but the Lord of Lust has his own
ideas of how the afternoon will transpire, and the consequences of her evening
are long lasting.
Her deal with Ryan means she must
go to Africa to help guard gazelles for a week. She trains for the event, but
her preparation doesn’t cover the Strigorii vampires who have their eye on her.
Since she broke up with Abbott, gaining control of her will be like hanging a
sign saying they’re more powerful than The Abbott without having to actually
fight him.
Throw in complications with
Nathan and a few battles with her old enemy Aquila, and Kirsten doesn’t know
whether she’s coming or going. She wants peace and quiet with her daughter, but
is it possible? Is she too embroiled in supernatural politics to live a normal
life? Kirsten feels as if she’s become a game piece in a sick game of chess,
and she wants off the board.

Excerpt:
“Chère,
it’s good to see you.” Xaephan walked to a nightstand, opened a drawer, and
chuckled. “Your lion follows instructions well.” He stood and inhaled. “He’s
close enough to keep an eye on you. Nice.”
“He isn’t
my lion. He’s my friend, and he happens to be a lion.”
“He’s
more yours than anyone else’s, Chère. Eventually, you’ll have to confront his
Pride, but he’s keeping them in check, for now.”
I forgot
what I’d intended to say when he lifted a paddle and flogger from the drawer,
followed by a large glass butt plug and a worn leather strap.
The first
three items were obviously new, but the strap wasn’t, and I eyed it a few
seconds while I tried to figure out how to word my question. “The strap has a
story. I want to hear it before you use it on me.”
“It
belongs to your lion and is on loan to me for the evening.”
I shook
my head. “No. I don’t know what you hope to accomplish by using something of
Nathan’s to whip me, but I don’t agree to it.”
“Nothing
in our agreement says I can’t, Chère. You said I’d have to act in your best
interest, and you bound me from tricking you into anything. I said to find a
place I could spank you and make you scream without us being heard, and I
warned you moving the marks will hurt nearly as bad as receiving them in the
first place. Nothing in that agreement says I can’t use something belonging to
the Lion King to spank you with.”
I crossed
my arms. “I don’t like it.”
He gave
me a rakish grin. “Works for me. Our two hours of Earth-time doesn’t begin
until we get started, so get rid of the robe and bend over the bed.”
Part of
me wanted to bitch about him being a jerk, part of me appreciated the emotional
distance it created. I stood, tossed the robe onto a chair in the corner, and
bent over the tall bed. I’m short, so I don’t think it worked out quite the way
he intended.
“On
second thought, tiny human, bend over the chest at the foot of the bed.”

Candace Blevins has published more than
thirty books. She lives with her husband of nineteen years and their two
daughters. When not working or driving young teens all over the place, she can
be found reading, writing, meditating, or swimming. The family’s beloved,
goofy, retired racing greyhound is usually at her side as she writes, quietly
keeping her company.
Candace writes Urban Fantasy, Paranormal
Romance, Contemporary BDSM Romance, and a kick-ass Motorcycle Club series.
Her urban fantasy series, Only Human, gives
us a world where weredragons, werewolves, werelions, three different species of
vampires, and a variety of other mythological beings exist.
Candace's two paranormal romance series, The
Chattanooga Supernaturals and The Rolling Thunder Motorcycle Club, are both
sister series to the Only Human series, and give some secondary characters
their happily ever after.
Her contemporary Safeword series gives us
characters who happen to have some extreme kinks. Relationships can be
difficult enough without throwing power exchange into the mix, and her books
show characters who care enough about each other to fight to make the
relationship work. Each couple in the Safeword series gives the reader a
different take on the lifestyle.
